However, Gerodots hypothesis was rejected due to the Caucasoid features and structures of the Scythian people.

The Agreement of Cooperation between the government of Tuva and the government of the Republic of Mongolia is under preparation. The draft of this document has been approved on all levels of both parties, and will be signed during Sherig-ool Oorzhaks visit to Mongolia in late September. Within the framework of this cooperation, the Mongolian party will provide Tuva with cattle, but this still needs to be discussed as there are certain limitations on goods and supplies in both the Constitution of Mongolia and of the Russian legislature. Most of them have to do with veterinary standardsЂMongolian standards do not correspond with those of Russia.

Today the Buddhists of the Republic held a protest in support of the 14th Dalai Lama, whose travel into the country was refused by the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, on the recommendation of Chinese authorities. The same kind of protests were held in all of the Buddhist republics of Russia, among them Kalmykia and Buryatia, who also expected the Dalai Lama. Ten years ago, on September 19th, Tenzin Gyatso came to Tuva for the first time, on the invitation of the Tuvan parliament. Thousands of people gathered then on Lenin St. in Kyzyl and prayed together with him. A decade after this spiritual gathering, the Buddhist leader may not return to the same place. The participants in the protest appealed to the President of Russia and the parliament of the Federation, asking for the Dalai Lamas return.
